The GAZETTE is now the oldest paper IL
the State, and with few exceptions the old
est in the country, and its usefulness has
been demonstrated and appreciated during
the EIGHTY.sEvEN YEARS ofits existence In
its columns has always been found mirror
ofpassing events, and the careful chroni-
cling ofthe history of what is going on in the
world has ever been its aim. 1t is always
welcomed in the household, while in the
counting room and workshop it has become
invaluable
The GAZETTE has better facilities for OBJ
tanning news than any paper outside of the
national capital. Situated as it is so close
to the great centre of news, it enjoys daily
the benefit of the Associated Press dis
patches from every part ofthe world hence
It's patrons can read from its columns in the
evening what has transpired that day in
every portion Of our own domain as we'll az
from every part of the habitabIe globe
Consequently it is an every day occurrence
for the GAZETTE 10 publish kilograms from
the various European capitals twelve and
fifteen hours earlier than the morning pa
pers.
Another feature that serves to make the
GAZETTE "A great desideratum with mer
chants is its afternoon market reports from
New York, Baltimore, Chicago and othst
centres.
The local department furnishes a full and
complete history of everything that occurs
and near the city, and this feature will.
as ever, receive careful attention.
Correspondence from Washington, Rice
mond and every section of the State, is pub.
lished regularly, and all events of interest
occurring within the bounds of the Com
are TO lie found in the columns
Of the GAZETTE.
The GAzETTE's circulation is steadily il
,reasiDg, especially among people who con-
suit its advertising columns before purchas.
ng. That this is aeIfevdent may be infer
ed from the fact that large country edi.
aslarge as the daily--is sent
III over this section of country three tines

whom send here or to contiguous cities to
make purchases. The advantages of ad-
'ertising in the GAZETTE are, therefore. ap

ABOUT CARRIERS.
The splral Ones Arc Better Than the
Hygienic Harness Kind.

Annie Jenness Miller IN DreSe.
-Four years ago We very reluctantly
gave up pair of spiral wire gsrters,
worn below the knee, which held our
stockings perfectly smooth, and dill not
interfere with perfect circulation, this
spiral arrangement having no relation to
the nerve and muscle-psrslyzipg elastic
garter. But We were tod any thing worn
around the leg was in the nature of 3
ligsture, and must be abandoned; SO
away went our comfortable and satisfac-
tory spirsls, while we plunged into 8
mild form of rioting in different styles
and pstteIns Of attachments recommended
as ''improved and hygienic."
We were seeking truth in detail, and
discomforts only added to our zeal to find
the right thing at last One sfter another
of these harnesses Did we wear, until sat
isfi ID that none of them fulfilled the re-
quirements of perfect stocking support
The stockings were held firmly? Yes;
but every one of these attachments
brought pressure to bear somewhere
where it ought not to be, causing the
wearer not only bodily discomfort, but
positive injury.
Our advice to women is to have good
substantial silver garter of the spiral
pattern made, since the silver will wear
for years, and can always be kept bright
and shining; and as the garter gives
readily with each movement of the leg,
is cool and light, and brings no steady
pressure upon any sensitive part. It is a
great Improvement over anything else
we are familiar with, and our knowledge
of supports is thorough and cOmprehen-
sive.

ACTORS ANTICS.

Romant1cism."
New York sun.
Nothing emuses the average actor so
much IS limitations of the more noted Of
his brethren by clever mimics. The sen
sstion of weeks time recently was Ned
Henley's imitation Of Mr.. Kyrle Bellows
manner when he met an lmpressiOnable
girl for the first time. Bellew is poser
and a mssher, with long and carefully ar
ranged irongray rInglets snd ef9minate
face, s dainty figure, and man
ner of gentle and abashed romanticism.
The stories of his conquests, both
here sad in London, are inuumerable. At
Gn evening party long since, where there
we're q number of professional people,
Mr.. Henley volunteered to give an limits
ton of NJ. Bellows methods. Mrs.
| George Drew-Bsrrymore played the role
of the impressionsble Young girl. She
entered the room timi6ly after slight
knock and discovered Henley, who was
| initiating Bellew, sitting in an attitude OF
| deep detection IN the corner OF
large sofa. He looked 81 her 3
moment in intense and bitter silence, and
then shaking his head quickly over his
left shoulder, dashed a mystical tear from
his solemn eve and trembled with visible
emotion. Then rising suddenly, ne strobe
toward the visitor, took her hand gently
| in both of his, and led her toward 3
ichsir. The chair was ertfully placed

nesr the piano stool. After the visitor
had seated herself the delicious Kyrle
Bellew stood with dropping shoulders,
ciasped hands ana bent head In front OF
her sod g-zsd
YEARNINGLY AND SEARCEINGLY
at her eyes. Inc Intensity Of the look
was enough to roast clam. Still not e
word was spoken. Then the actor stalked
the length OF the room twice, rumpled his
hair with gesture of feverish misery
and, suddenly throwing himself on 3
piapo stool, hammered out four minor
chords in loud succession On the piano.
Then he turned with wild and despair
Ing look, while the notes still rang
through the room, peered into the girl's
eyes, and falling forward with his head
on his arms, mosned in heart-broken
tones: my gswd! how beautiful you
are You have ruined my life"
